Just downloaded an application form for a job. For some that reason I can't fathom, the fields are write protected.

I am not sure why this is, granted I am trying to edit this in LibreOffice 7.x that comes with Debian 11, I also just tried with 7.4, and get the same issue.

Any ideas please

@libreoffice

@zleap Usually that means they want you to print it out and fill it out by hand (and then fax it to them, presumably).

It's also a big red flag that the company runs on arcane rules from the age of yore rather than logic or common sense.

@dsfgs @zleap GIMP is a great tool, but it's not exactly what I'd call user-friendly...

@LouisIngenthron @dsfgs

I use gimp for a few things, but do get a few issue.

@dsfgs @GIMP @LouisIngenthron

I will see if the school reply tomorrow, I am not confident.

I am happy to send said form to the @libreoffice dev team. to see if it can help with compatibility
